#4. Lewis Ludlam (Northampton Saints)
After the Premiership hiatus, Bristol Bears emerged with fervor, netting seven tries to halt Northampton’s dominant 10-game winning streak.
Northampton found it difficult to establish themselves, with Steven Luatua’s colossal tackle on Saints captain Ludlum disrupting their initial surge towards the Bristol try line.
However, Northampton’s struggles were compounded by their own disciplinary issues, conceding 14 penalties compared to Bristol’s six. The sin-binning of Ludlum for a side entry in a maul proved costly, allowing Sinckler to roll over for Bristol’s third try.
